BLUE CHIP Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BLUE CHIP sales between September 2003 and November 2023 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the August 2008 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might BLUE CHIP be worth now?

BLUE CHIP might now be worth an estimated £296,061.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.3%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for BLUE CHIP of £300,000 on 3rd November 2023. For the value to have decreased from £300,000 to £296,061 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLUE CHIP has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLUE CHIP has not materially changed since November 2023.
